Description
'Habermas' provides a much needed accessible way in to the long and forbiddingly technical works of the most internationally well known living German philosopher.Tags

Uma boa introdução à extensa obra de Habermas, que possivelmente ajude a traçar ao menos quais obras devemos buscar para ingressar no corpus e defender melhor a democracia e o universalismo, além do racionalismo, tanto do irracionalismo (e tecnofobia), quanto de localismos, acusações de falso universalismo (gloabalismo estado-unidense, universalismo europeu etc) ou dos reducionismos à questão do poder e da dominação. Nisso ele soa como um autor kantiano, com a insistência nas distinções, ao meu ver salutares, entre normatividade e instrumentalidade, racionalidade comunicativa e estratégica, mundo da vida e sistema, ética e moral. A teoria da progressão moral rumo ao pós-convencional e a teoria da linguagem com os show more padrões de validade são interessantes, mas teriam de ser melhor compreendidas em livros mais extensos. show less
Read all of this I intend to (I think), searching for the public sphere bits.

Habermas is best known in the English-speaking world as the author of The Theory of Communicative Action, of various essays on discourse ethics, and of Between Facts and Norms, the works to which, roughly speaki... (show all)ng, his social, moral, and political theory respectively are developed. - Last words
- (Click to show. Warning: May contain spoilers.)The experiment must be continued, Habermas suggests, above all because we do know that the alternative is worse: to say farewell to the idea of democratic politics as the attempt of free and equal citizens collectively to shape their social world.
